  1. I know the feeling, unfortunately when you eat at your desk you have to be sensible otherwise you look like a greedy bastard!
  2. I think thats a bit harsh but a well written point and i do see where you are coming from. I just think its brilliant TV, the last episode dedicated to Mike was so well done to give him a back story that was not only interesting but gave so much insight into his character in Breaking Bad, like why he seemed to take a shine to Jesse and why he placed so much emphasis on his grand daughter. For me this series really bucks the current trend of just churning out series and episodes with no soul, its refreshing to see that they care about the source material so much.
  3. His time in the team is over for me, squad player at best the same as Weimann.
  4. The show you are thinking of was called Bits.
  5. Anyone know what the craic is with Sauber? Obviously half the field were missing come the end of the race on sunday but where has this improved performance come from?
  6. Gamezville was the shiz. Can't believe that was 10 years ago. Personally i think there is still some kind of market for a mass produced tv show, just need to find the right cast. Could quite easily employ some of the more famous youtubers to host on a rotating basis and the ratings would go through the roof.
  7. People who yawn but don't cover their mouth. I find it quite rude to be honest. I know that this dates back to my school days when we were always told to cover our mouths, so not sure if its just me that finds it annoying?
  8. I can't even pretend to know what an only connect connecting wall is?
  9. No point in standardising anything in formula 1. It's supposed to be be pinnacle of Motorsport. There's plenty of series where everything is standardised if that's your thing. It is boring to watch one team dominating but that's pretty much been the case for the last 15 years. Schumacher era, vettel era, with a few gaps inbetween such as hamiltons debut year and the following year and of course the double diffuser brawn gp saga, unsurprisingly those are the standout years of F1 over the last 15 years.
  10. Rewatched Gran Torino last night. Great film!
  11. I've only seen the first episode of the new series, so far. I really enjoyed it. The kid who plays Padraic is just brilliant. Steals the show for me, every time. Agree Padraic is very good, i would be interested to see what you think of episode 2. On another note - better call saul tonight, can't wait!
  12. Is it just me or is Moone Boy a bit meh this series? I thought it was great in the first 2 but it seems like they don't really have a direction so far in this one.
  13. That brief period where we were number 1 in all forms of the game seems a long time ago doesn't it?
  14. Im going on the Thursday for the 3rd year running. Watching and drinking in town on the Friday.
  15. What a game of cricket that was. Quite painful when you have decent money on Zimbabwe and they only need 7 runs for the final over though.
  16. Just drinking a 40oz tiger beer while watching the darts.
  17. Watching the sandy hook documentary on bbc. Americans and their guns, **** nutcases the lot of them. It's actually quite disturbing how much they feel they need them, even when the president tries to make some sensible changes to the law he doesn't have the power to beat the NRA. Absolute madness.
  18. The days of Young and Downing bombing down the wings with Milner and Barry in the middle seems like a long time ago. Not hard to see why we got 6th place 3 years running with that midfield.
  19. Have a feeling he will become a love to hate character for opposition fans. Been on a few of the baggies forums and they are already slagging him off big time. I'm willing to give him a chance personally, yes he doesn't have the pedigree of the majority of prem managers but for me we made the right choice with Sherwood over someone like Tony Pulis, you never know he might just be the next big thing, you don't have to work your way up through the lower leagues to prove your worth as a manager. Pulis will do a job at West Brom but no more than that, hes average at best and certainly wont be challenging for Europe. Give it a couple of years and we might have the next Mourinho or Brendan Rodgers on our hands. That's a better chance to take than employing a bang average manager like Pulis imo. Just look at a fellow prem team like swansea who i thought would drop like a stone after bringing in Gary Monk. It just goes to show that motivation of players counts for so much, if they are playing for you then you'll be ok. If you want to break the top 6 its basically spending a 100 million to get the job done regardless of who your manager is.
  20. It does seem strange that they are taking so much precaution with this but its probably linked to all the recent goings on. I remember that race where Webber literally took off over someones car, horrible accident but he basically gave the thumbs up and strolled away and then i think was driving in the next race.
  21. Agree on clown, good idea but frankly didn't give a shite about any of the characters, couple of good set pieces including the children's play area unfortunately don't save what is a very average film 5/10
  22. Anyone played any rayman on the xbone yet? Its the free game this month...played the first level and it seemed ok but wondering whether to plow on later.

    Probably stayed in Alanya 7-8 times over 10 years as a kid, it was our go to holiday destination. Never saw the slightest bit of trouble in all the time i was there, some of the restaurant people and hotel people are the most friendly you will ever meet. Walk through the markets and you will be hassled but its never over the top and certainly nothing that doesn't happen anywhere else, if you enjoy the bartering you'll be in your element. Its honestly not a joke that you will run into more trouble in broad street on a Saturday night than you will over there.
  24. 12 points from 23 games, it beggars belief, it really does. How can we be in this position when we had 10 points from the first 4 games.
  25. What is the point of us as a club really? Easily the worst team in the league, I've genuinely forgotten what it's like to win a league game. At least the other results have gone our way again, not that it matters
